Preparing for Parenthood
Tailored guidance to learn about the ins and outs of pregnancy, parenting and everything in between.
Building your confidence through education
Education is powerful, so why not use it to empower you as you birth and enter parenthood? It’s our job to arm you with up-to-date information so you can make informed choices. Yes, you read that correctly. There are opportunities that you'll need to make an informed decision and YOU can and will have the tools necessary to do what's best for your family. And building that confidence starts in pregnancy.
Prenatal Classes
Did you fears the unknown was a real thing? And this tends to be what concerns families leading up to their labour. The best way to overcome that fear is to educate yourself, especially on the topics that make you nervous!
Make intentional time to learn about the topics that keep you up at night or bring on anxiety. We offer labour and birth support classes and postpartum related classes. Currently, we’re only offering private prenatal classes, unless you’d like to arrange a group setting in your home!
Virtual or Group Classes start at $80
In-Home Classes start at $120
Birth Planning Session
This is included in every birth doula package.
Birth is full of unknowns, and that’s why in this session we guide you through your options for labour, immediate postnatal recovery, how to manage expectations and how to self advocate for your preferences with your care team. You’ll get access to our birth guide workbook, so you can always keep your preferences nearby for you and your support person.

Steaming for Labour
Did you know that vaginal steaming can help you prepare for labour? Or even better that you can do it during labour? Steaming provides a form of deep relaxation, warmth, hydration and herbal support. Around 36 weeks pregnant, we will begin gathering your supplies, educating you on safe steaming practices and guide you toward labour preparation.
Please note, it’s not used for inductions and it does not harm your baby. Steaming does lower your risk of interventions, perineal injury and stalled labours, especially when used during labour as well! This can be the boost to your self-care routine that lasts beyond labour!
Starting at $200
Postpartum Planning Session
You’ve prepped for the arrival of your baby, and you’re ready to give birth. But what happens once you bring your baby home? We naturally get excited about meeting our babies, but we forget to prepare for their arrival. A postpartum planning session guides you through what you need to consider, and plan for, after birth. We’ll talk about your emotional and physical recovery, mood disorders, creating support teams, and how to protect your relationships in this time of great transition.

What Families Are Saying
“We booked with them immediately. Both Fiona and Nikole were professional, knowledgeable but more importantly comfortable to talk to and put us at ease with any questions or concerns we had … They prepared us for all scenarios so I felt confident making decisions when our birth did not go according to plan.”
— Elizabeth, first time mom
“These doulas are absolutely amazing! They were very knowledgeable, giving us different tips on labor and birthing positions, as well as post partum care. We learned so many things regarding postpartum care, many of which we didn’t even consider.”
— Zion, first time mom
“Not only did we get tips on how to prepare for baby, but tips on how to ensure that we as a unit were able to pick up on cues on how to care for each other. Every question we asked were answered or researched and then she’s shared finding with us.”
— Anonymous, from prenatal class feedback
